It's a Beautiful Life | Chickasha, OK Couples Photographer

Scottie and I had been emailing back and fourth for a while talking about photographing her and her husband when he came home for R&R. Yes, Aj is in the military and I don't think I can thank him enough for serving our country. I was so excited to photograph the 2 of them just a few days after he came home. After meeting them I knew we all clicked right away! When Aj realized that I wasn't going to ask him to look directly into the camera and say cheese he relaxed quite quickly. There is no denying the two of them are so deeply in love... I have to admit I went a little trigger happy during their shoot!

Scottie and Aj, I was so happy to meet the two of you and really get to know you as a couple! You are not clients, you are friends :). Please enjoy your sneak peek!

This is definitely one of my favorites!!

Meet Blitz - an energetic, crazy, fun and very obedient puppy...not to mention their BABY! :)

EEERRRRG! I dont' think we need to ask who she's rooting for in the the big game! :)

They had such genuine smile through the whole shoot.... For every one photo I had one of them laughing their booties off! I will have to share those.... :)

Beautiful Family! :)

Fuzzy Peaches! | Chickasha, Oklahoma Family Photographer

I'm not the photographer that screams "SAY CHEESE!", I never have been and I never will be....But when the youngest boy in the "J" family yells, "FUZZY PEACHES!" on his own....I just can't resist. Sometimes it just works out :).

I had the honor of shooting the "J" family last weekend while all 18 of them were together for a very special day... their grandmother's birthday. I understand how hard it has to be to get everyone together at once but they did it! They were such an amazing family....so cooperative and well organized (a photographers dream). Unfortunately the light didn't cooperate so well....shooting in direct sunlight is a nightmare for me but we made it work; and might I say I'm very happy with the outcome... :)

Following is a sneak peek of what I have done so far; I still have a ways to go!

I'm sure this won't be the last post of the "J" family - keep your eyes open for a part 2!

Please enjoy!

A Look Back | Chickasha, Oklahoma Landscape Photographer

My post these days are seeming a little bare ;). I just wanted to share some landscapes I've taken over the past couple years....

Above: This was taken at a secluded location near Echo Lake at the bast of Mt. Evans in Evergreen, Colorado. I just love that little golden spot shining on the rock from the sun :).

Above: This was taken a few weeks ago just outside my home in Chickasha. The colors were so amazing, I LOVE sunrises here in Oklahoma! :) That's the biggest thing I missed when we lived in Colorado....being able to SEE the sunrises and sunsets....it doesn't get much prettier than this.

Above: This one as you know if featured at the top of my blog. It's my favorite panoramic landscape I have taken.... I'm not sure why lol! I just love how that jet trail arches over the mountains like a rainbow. This was taken outside of Aspen, Colorado in May 2009 - My 3 year anniversary (he was so sweet to surprise me with a weekend in Aspen; although we didn't spend much time in town, mainly exploring places like this!).

Above: This photo was also taken near Echo Lake in Evergreen, Colorado. It may not be the best photo I've ever taken but the roots give it so much character! :)
